listen up, peaches

I wasn't sure if Jeremy would be able to recover from Saturday night but somehow he did and although it was a bit later in the day than we had intended we actually made it out to Schnepf Farms for their annual peach festival.

Jeremy wasn't in the mood to drive and apparently I wasn't either because not only did I miss the exit for the 60 East I also took the 202 north instead of south out in the east valley, who does that! We got to the farm with about an hour and a half to play, which really, was plenty of time. The line in the bakery was out of control, grumpy people waiting in line, not even certain that they would get a fresh baked pie. We went to the front of the line, grabbed a frozen pie and were out of there in less than 5 minutes. Not only were we able to get a peach pie, we got some ice cream & candy for Espen, fresh squeezed lemonade and some peachy delish salsa and hot sauce too! We even had time to take a hayride to the peach orchard to pick our own peaches.

By the time we got home and had dinner our pie was perfectly thawed and ready for baking and holy crap, it was the best pie I've ever had.

Disclaimer: this post is loaded with photos of Espen. ha.

And on a side note, this morning before Jeremy left for work he set up Espen's big brown bear at his desk and when Espen saw it he went insane. It was SO funny. He quickly went from cracking up to teacher mode, explaining to me that he needs to teach his bear how to play games on his dad's computer...
